Happy Yule, all! At solstice, nature switches direction. The longest night is behind us, and we add a few minutes of sun to each day. I prefer moon salutations to the sunny variety, and the cool, quiet, silver of night to the raucous glaring gold of day. But that also makes it easy to get stuck in the dark, and I am increasingly challenged by that dark. Solstice gives me the opportunity to reflect on how I’ve been fumbling around in the dark preparing for my own Guiding Star.
May the solstice bring an opportunity to turn away from bad habits, and toward a better balance. As we add a few minutes to each day, may I spend more time of every day seeking The Light.
